Instant Pot owners, what's your favorite recipie?

My jingle is pretty loud, but my machine is several years old, so maybe they've dialed it down a bit so it's not so annoying. The beep is definitely loud, it's designed so you can hear it while watching TV in the other room LOL

Oh, no no no, nowhere near that loud. It's very very quiet on this second one, and I couldn't hear a thing from the first one.

Guinness Mac & Cheese
Google it there are several versions

Grated cheese is better but using bagged grated cheese is fine
The Guinness makes the pasta a kind of grey color but it’s yummy.

Found this. Instant Pot Guinness Mac and Cheese where it says "I mean who doesn’t love GREEN BEER!" Well, I'm total green blind so, duh... it's just beer to me.

Well, I have Costco bought organic pasta and some of the best cheddar ever (also from Costco), I can probably whip something up in the Instant Pot with those. I don't have any Guinness around but do have some dark gourmet brews (also from Costco).

I don't have all the ingredients but I can fake it pretty close. The only thing I don't have a substitute for is the Monterey jack cheese. Figure the cheddar by itself is fine.

I have made that one, use the whole bottle of beer.
I’ve found you need some moisture leftover after it has cooked.
Again the color isn’t great but tastes good.

Anyway, i wound up coming out wth a kilo of beef spare ribs chunks, which i slow-cooked over 3h with carrots, onions, celery, 5 Spice, Lao Gan Ma chili sauce, korean bean & chili paste, and chicken stock.

Don't the veggies turn to mush after cooking that long? I have seen several Instant Pot recipes where the instructions were to put the veggies in towards the end of the cook cycle to avoid this problem.

Carrots, onions and celery hold up pretty well

Anyone have any idea how long a pork ribeye roast will take in this thing?

You mean a pork rib roast? I haven't cooked one of those in ages.

I’ve seen 20 per pound for roasts probably a good place to start

 

[ElFenix]

ok scratch the ribeye roast, seems like it's probably too nice a piece of meat for using in stew. i'll anova that one. picked up a slice of pork leg with some bone in it - 2 lb steamship cut (so, fresh ham). i figure it'll take the heat in the instant pot better than the ribeye roast.

It really depends on what texture you want. I've done between 40 to 90 minutes with good results. I really like this recipe & make it a few times a year:

Instant Pot Kalua Pork

For most roats that I'm not shredding, yeah, I go the sous-vide route. It's just too easy lol.

and that'd probably about right for a shoulder roast. that's a well-worked muscle with lots of connective tissue. ribeye roast is the longissimus muscle, which does just about nothing. using loin roast instructions and adding a few minutes would probably be the way to go.

it's cheap enough (at only $2.50/lb) that i probably should experiment.

Try out my chicken stew. I didn’t measure anything but it appears forgiving. Just don’t go really heavy on one vegetable.
Also skip the flour/roux was a pain and didn’t add any value but try using cornstarch to thicken. I’ve never used corn starch but it appears super easy. One tablespoon of corn starch mixes in with *some* water or some of the broth left over. Overview is here:

Weiterleitungshinweis

Advanced: I didn’t add any spices, next time I’ll throw something in maybe shredded parsley and/or thyme.

SV + smoke would be an awesome way to go, if you're into that!

Um, where's your chicken stew recipe?

With regards to cornstarch as a thickener, I have some but I usually don't bother reaching for it but just sprinkle a little white flour over the concoction, stir a moment and it's thickened fine.

Bigos:

Sweat 3 strips bacon, brown a link of sausage, brown pork leg steak, remove some fat, add some red wine to deglaze, reduce, add 1 sliced onion, cook down, add a couple tablespoons of beef base and tomato paste, 4 smashed garlic cloves, add a small chopped cabbage, 28 oz of drained sauerkraut, 14 oz drained chopped tomatoes, a very large shredded carrot, a handful dried mushrooms, a cup of chopped prunes, a tsp of allspice, a tsp of caraway seeds, add meat back in (chop up pork), cook on high pressure for 40 minutes, fast release, add kraut and tomato liquid, high for 10 minutes, fast release, serve with rye bread.


edit: i think next time i'm going with fresh mushrooms that had the water cooked out of them as the very first step then added with the juices at the end. dried didn't quite rehydrate. maybe they'll be better manana.

I do think so! Thank you!!!

Hmm. The good ones are like a horsepower or two, so they're pretty loud.

Anyway, I think the tradeoff you have to make is that power = noise. I use my smaller Twister jar in the morning for single-serving stuff like smoothies, which definitely reduces the noise, but it's still pretty dang loud. A DIY hushbox is probably the only way to really kill the noise.

I have a 600watt Osterizer blender I luckily spotted at Costco some years back. It can be quite loud, depending on what I'm using it for. My antidote to permanent hearing loss with it (and some other equipment) is a pair of hearing protection earmuffs I picked up cheap at Harbor Freight. I actually have 3 pair of these, IIRC. I keep one set in the kitchen to good effect.
